A Sweetness to the Soul
(2008)
 "Like the slow rising of the river after an early snow melt in the mountains, he seeped into my life; unhurried, almost without notice, until the strength and breadth of him covered everything that had once been familiar, made it different, new over old."
Based on historical characters and events, A Sweetness to the Soul recounts the captivating story of young, spirited Oregon pioneer Jane Herbert who at the age of twelve faces a tragedy which begins a life-long search for forgiveness and love.
In the years that follow, young Jane finds herself involved in an unusual and touching romance with a dreamer sixteen years her senior, struggles to make peace with an emotionally distant mother, and fights to build a family of her own.
Filled with heart-warming insight and glimpses of real-life pain, A Sweetness to the Soul paints a brilliant picture of love that conquers all obstacles and offers a powerful testimony to the miracle of God's healing power.

Reviews
"The best novels leave the reader changed in some significant way. A Sweetness to the Soul does that literally from its opening pages.... It is a celebration of those things that connect us, that make us what we are, that give us joy, and sorrow, and understanding."
--The Statesman Journal, Salem, Oregon
